Is the Toyota Levin produced by GAC or FAW?
2 Answers
The Toyota Levin is produced by GAC. Here are some relevant details about the Toyota Levin: 1. The all-new generation Levin comes standard with 8 airbags and multiple electronic active safety assistance systems, including ABS anti-lock braking system, VSC vehicle stability control system, HAC hill-start assist control, TRC traction control system, and more. Additionally, it is equipped with a PM2.5 air purification system, a first for Toyota, which can monitor the PM2.5 concentration inside the vehicle in real time. 2. In terms of power, the all-new generation Levin is powered by a 1.2T inline 4-cylinder direct-injection turbocharged engine. By reducing internal engine friction and optimizing the intake pipe and intake manifold, the engine's combustion efficiency is improved, enhancing acceleration performance. Paired with a simulated 10-speed S-CVT transmission, its 0-100 km/h acceleration performance even surpasses that of ordinary 1.8L models, effectively preventing carbon buildup and ensuring high reliability and durability. 3. The Toyota Levin has a minimum ground clearance of 105mm. Minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the vehicle (excluding the wheels) and the supporting surface when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary. This measurement indicates the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles like rocks and tree stumps without collision.
I saw the Toyota Levin at the auto show, which is a model under GAC Toyota. This reminded me of the time I accompanied a friend to buy a car—he thought it was similar to the Corolla, but actually, the Corolla belongs to FAW Toyota, while the Levin is produced by GAC. They are particularly popular in the southern regions, with dealerships displaying GAC's branding. If you're buying a car, don't confuse the names. The two models share a similar platform, but the Levin is available at GAC 4S stores, and its details, like the rear suspension tuning, are more comfortable, making it suitable for city driving. I often help people choose cars, and confirming the brand saves unnecessary trips—official stores are more reliable. Remembering this distinction is practical to avoid misleading online searches.
